Channel 4 had a '3 minute wonder' last night on the launch of fashion mag ]Supersuper (http://[object Object).
No appeared on 4od (http://www.channel4.com/search/?q=3+minute+wonder) yet but I guess it will soon.
I'm 90% sure the whole thing is a pisstake. Anyone?
SugaaaaRaaaape ?

Badass linking skillz there JB :)

It seems not:
There is no denying that Super Super is a phenomenal fashion force propelling Nu Rave forward in the subculture stakes. Engineered and steered by pop culture protagonists, Namalee and Steve, it is essentially a fashion magazine, but the Super folk are ever-evolving and are now hosting events and offering consultation services, making publications like Dazed and Confused look about as with it as your grandad.
You can learn more, here (http://www.fuk.co.uk/london_fashion_week_autumn_winter_2008/supersuper), should you so desire.

Shamefully, I quite like some of their stuff, by the time it hits the High Streets it'll probably be quite wearable. [/wanky fashion talk]

its got to be a windup, either that or its the new frontier of choadism. great if you want to look like a gay pantomime hitler who got dressed in the dark.

I don't know what you mean dave........

N-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-TWATMAN!

The idiots are winning.
-
erm, sam will be along shortly to tell us we are all design philistines and that the "gay pantomime hitler dressed in dark" and "dobbin" looks will be all the rage this winter amongst those who know about fashion.
;)
-
The "dobbin" look is already the rage. Unless you want to be WEAK.
-
Some of it is a odd but most high fashion catwalk stuff is, it never stays that mad when it reaches the shops, the stuff at shows always looks really out there, even the collections from more tame designers.
They do some nice and normal stuff, look:

I'm not quite sure why I feel the need to defend them. :lol:
-
Especially when you posted the indefensible picture!
-
I quite like the wee jumper he has on under his spacesuit gillet, actually. 8)
-
Oh dear.

I was just about resigned to it being genuine when the credits rolled on the 3 minute wonder. Produced and directed by... Nathaniel Barratt.
Either its a pisstake they're taking all the way, or the idiots have signed up and they've thought, fuck it, lets run with it. Or high fashion is now high irony - I dress like a twat on purpose, so actually the joke's on you?

been around since 2005 http://www.supersuper.tv/ (http://www.supersuper.tv/)
Editor 'Namalee' [name up name!]
When we first started it was all about fashion just being fun, opening that feeling of it not being so elitist to want to dress so in an avant garde way and actually just enjoy yourself. We wanted to destroy the myth where you have to suffer to be cool.

Watch for yourself.

They're taking the piss - but so seriously that its almost impossible to tell. Plenty of Barley references - 2:20 on the second vid - today ridicule, tomorrow really cool?
The editor looks too like Chris Morris, and that chick looks too like Djave Bikinus.
-
it can be real, can it? Its either a pisstake done very well, or real done very badly.(I'm sure i've seen "super steve" in something else before.....)
found a blog about it:

It is real I think. I have only read a couple of Supersupers, but i did think it was great. Obviously I am too old for it, but I think there is a genuine mindless optimism and lack of cynicism. It is kind of the polar opposite to Vice.
And Jasper, don't you have have a Hitler moustache yet? I have been rocking mine since Sept 2nd - Thats how fashion forward I am. I heard Jerry is going to grow one next week!
-
Fuck, I'm so out of touch.
-
sorry guys supersuper is real. i worked for them at london fashion week last year.
-
That Namalee woman was a fashion expert on a BBC3 show I worked on.
She is the female embodiment of the spirit of shoreditch and is in no way taking the piss, in fact she takes herself all too seriously.

Why is this shitheaped? ???

Cos its a heap of shit? It was started in the 'heap.
